SOAPUI-Category SET Attribute

How to set content server category SET attributes through SOAPUI. What is the syntax?

I am trying to set like this

<urn1:Values xsi:type="urn2:StringValue" xmlns:urn2="urn:Core.service.livelink.opentext.com">

<urn2:Description>Status</urn2:Description>

<urn2:Key>1188310.3.3</urn2:Key>
<urn2:Values>Active</urn2:Values>
</urn1:Values>

Error

<faultstring xml:lang="en-US">Dispatched service DocumentManagement threw exception DocMan.NodeCreationError : Error storing attribute. Value key is invalid</faultstring>

I probably will use the samples form OT or in this forum in C# or Java. There should be plenty of samples lying around in those languages including some I put here. Once you have that rudimentary example working run it and look through fiddler it will show you the SOAP message
Here are some examples where people like you were trying to use SOAP UI https://appukili.wordpress.com/2014/12/08/soapui-one-could-use-some-lather/ I suspect links in my documents will break as OT always changes things around and content is bound to be lost. It's a shame that collective content server knowledge gets lost in all these reorgs but your efforts if you follow the advice will probably work.SOAP is not going to get a lot of attention from OT I think.

I know that others have posted similar questions in the past. There was even some sample code attached as an example to update/set a category attribute within a SET. However, since the forums have been updated/migrated, I cannot seem to find the older posts.

The SET data structure is somewhat unique and is not really obvious until you inspect an object that already has values set. Perhaps you could call getNode in SOAPUI for an object with a SET in a category (that has some existing value). Then see how everything is constructed. I basically did the same thing in Visual Studio.

I had some code used previously for testing that will get a Node with a category SET already attached. After I get the node, then I iterate through the attributes, find the SET and set values for the attributes within. I've attached a zip with the C# code. Perhaps it is enough for you to see what needs to be done in SOAPUI, but likely you would need to run this code and capture the raw SOAP message using fiddler or something similar.
